hi
Dear Senior Members and Programmers
I wanted to know what is the difference between a .mq4 file and .ex4 file in MT4. What do they do differently? Any help will be greatly appreciated
Thanks In Advance
Peace Lover.mq4 is source code of indicators or Expert Advisor and .ex4 is file compilation from .mq4....
in order to compile .mq4 is simple, just open .mq4 and press F5 and you're done.
To use it..just place .ex4 in indicators folder of MT4
then reopen your MT4

Reverse Coding ?
Is there a way to reverse the code ? That is to get back the TXT file starting from the EX4 file ?
TIA

Peace Loverex4 is simply an mq4 file, but encrypted. This is done to protect intellectual property. There is no difference in functionality between mq4 i ex4.

BigblackfeetYes, there is a way to reverse-engineer the code.
No, there is no publicly-available utility to do this.

Best Forex ProductYou mean open it in MetaEditor, correct?
You mean open it in MetaEditor, correct?
Right. Because MetaTrader is using ex4 files only (as i understand it in right way).
ex4 is simply an mq4 file, but encrypted. This is done to protect intellectual property. There is no difference in functionality between mq4 i ex4.
Yes, there is a way to reverse-engineer the code.
No, there is no publicly-available utility to do this.is it have any solution to get ex4 code?

What is the way to reverse-engineer the code from ex4 to mq4? Thanks for your help
- There has been zero proof that any ex4/5 can be decompiled since Build 600+ 20 14.02.03

Don't tell us you found it on the 'net: if someone stole your bank details and uploaded them on to the internet, is it OK for everyone to use them because "someone uploaded it, I don't know why I can't use that"?
